…tacktrace (#4902)
offcputime may display inaccurate DSO information in the stacktrace.
Here's an example of the issue:
It shows the same DSO offset for different addresses, which is incorrect.
$ ./offcputime -v
..
#14 0x00007f8b912a8c (/usr/lib/libcbe.so_0x22afa8c)
#15 0x000044000a3ee0 (/usr/lib/libcbe.so_0x22afa8c)
#16 0x000044001fc56c (/usr/lib/libcbe.so_0x22afa8c)
This is why syms__map_addr_dso simply returns NULL when syms__find_dso also
returns NULL. In that case, the values of dso_name and dso_offset are not
changed. If the dso_name and dso_offset variables have a garbage value before
calling syms__map_addr_dso, those garbage values are maintained after calling
syms__map_addr_dso.
This patch fixes the issue by reinitializing dso_name and dso_offset variables
before calling syms__map_addr_dso.

This is why syms__map_addr_dso simply returns NULL when syms__find_dso also
returns NULL. In that case, the values of dso_name and dso_offset are not
changed. If the dso_name and dso_offset variables have a garbage value before
calling syms__map_addr_dso, those garbage values are maintained after calling
syms__map_addr_dso.
To ensure consistent usage of DSO info and symbol info, the prototype of
syms__map_addr_dso has been modified to be similar to dladdr[1].
This is the prototype of dladdr:
int dladdr(void *addr, Dl_info *info);
The information is returned in a Dl_info structure. If no symbol matching addr
could be found, then dli_sname and dli_saddr are set to NULL.
typedef struct {
const char *dli_fname; /* Pathname of shared object that
contains address */
void *dli_fbase; /* Base address at which shared
object is loaded */
const char *dli_sname; /* Name of symbol whose definition
overlaps addr */
void *dli_saddr; /* Exact address of symbol named
in dli_sname */
} Dl_info;
Similarly, if no symbol matching the addr could be found, then sym_name and
sym_offset are set to NULL in syms__map_addr_dso of this patch.
Also, apply the modified API usage to offcputime, futexctn, and memleak.

Clean cherrypick of b2e9c36

Ran the following to figure out number of entries on a 4 core system
without the change:
"""

1237787/(6060499) = ~80% hit rate
I doubled the default hash to 81920 and we got to 83% hit rate, does not seem like we gain too much with increasing the hash size.
